The link is a press release by the United Nations. The student's portfolio of the subject is noted below.Violence against women is a global problem. Moreover, it is only a symptom of a much broader issue; that being gender inequality. Unfortunately, despite the known prevalence and serious detrimental effects of violence against women, “experience has shown that social institutions have often blamed battered women or, at the very least ignored them.” (Seear, 2007, p. 246). Consequently, is violence against women a matter of choice, or chance? With the exception of poverty; which often puts women at a greater risk of experiencing violence or abuse, most demographic and social characteristics of both men and women are not associated with increased risk of violence (Jewkes, 2002). A woman’s experience of violence or abuse is far more closely linked to access to supportive resources (Jewkes, 2002). Therefore, it would certainly appear that violence against women is not a matter of poor choices, but rather a result of gender inequality and poor access to much needed resources.Apart from the obvious issue of human rights, violence against women poses a serious burden to the health care system, apart from physical injury, abused women are more likely to suffer from depression, anxiety, psychosomatic illness, eating disorders, and sexual dysfunction (Seear, 2007). Thus, violence against women is unquestionably a global health issue with wide reaching consequences that takes a significant toll on national and global resources.Seear (2007) explains that in Brazil, specific police stations staffed entirely by women have been established to deal exclusively with women’s issues and domestic violence. This would seem a highly effective and innovative strategy with which to fight violence against women, while simultaneously empowering the female community. Nevertheless, one wonders if this approach adds to the existence of gender inequality by furthering the segregation between genders.Rather than treating women after they have experienced violence which is merely a band-aid approach, health communities need to focus more on supporting and empowering women before violence becomes endemic. This preventative approach would foster the values and principles of primary health care. More specifically it would create equal access to supportive resources for women world-wide, and involve women in the planning, implementation and maintenance of such resources and health services. Attacking the issue of violence against women from more than just a health care perspective, and including aspects such as education reinforces intersectoral coordination and ensures that resources are put to their best use and will ideally lead to the elimination of violence against women globally.ReferencesJewkes, R. (2002). Violence against women III: intimate partner violence: causes and prevention. Lancet, 359(9315), 1423-1429.Seear, M. (2007). Human rights interventions. An Introduction to International Health. (pp. 237-256). Toronto, ON: Canadian Scholars’ Press Inc

This Video was created by Dr Sanjoy Sanyal, Professor and Course Director of Neuroscience.Camera person is Mr. Mark Lessard, IT Administrator, with his high resolution Sony HDR XR 520 Video camera. The original MTS file was too large for SlideShare. So it was converted to MP4 format.The components of Basal Forebrain are described, followed by the Meso-limbic and Meso-cortical Pathways. Then their role in Drug Addiction and Schizophrenia are explained. Finally the Hypothalamic connections, Hippocampal Formation, Septal Areas and Amygdala Connections are demonstrated graphically. This YouTube video was embedded after Slide Number 13 in Slideshare. It gives a running commentary by the author on a formalinized human brain specimen describing what was mentioned in the preceding slides.This is purely for educational purposes and no copyright infringement is intended.Tags: Basal Forebrain, Mesolimbic, Mesocortical, Drug Addiction, Schizophrenia, NAc Pathway, Hippocampal Formation, Septal Areas, Amygdala, Sanjoy Sanyal, Professor, NeuroscienceEducational Value: These topics are either not clearly explained in books and / or not clearly understood by many students and residents.

This information explosion has got me thinking. When we want a particular piece of information, we have to search for hours. When we do not want something, we are flooded with millions of them. So I decided to show a link between the human brain and the current information explosion, that has led the information overload.

This is a demonstration of the structures in the human brain (formalinized specimen) constituting the Papez Circuit. The commentator is Dr Sanjoy Sanyal, Professor and Course Director of Neuroscience in the Caribbean. Cameraman is Mr. Mark Lessard, IT Administrator, with his high resolution Sony HDR XR 520 video camera. The video has been rendered from its original MTS format to MPEG format for ease of uploading.Tags: Papez Circuit, James Papez, Human Brain, Sanjoy Sanyal, Professor, Neuroscience, MUA, Fornix, Hippocampus, Dentate Gyrus, Mammillary Body, Thalamus, Cingulate Gyrus, Cingulum, Entorhinal Area, Hippocampal Formation, Perforant pathway, Alveolar Pathway, Olfactory Cortex, Memory, Consolidation, Emotion, Behavior, Motivation, Olfaction, Maclean Circuit,Addendum: Two pathways go from the Entorhinal Area (Input Source) to the Hippocampal Formation, namely the Perforant Pathway (perforates through the Subiculum), and the Alveolar Pathway (through the Alveus). This was inadvertently missed out in the commentary.Educational Value: You rarely get to see the Hippocampal Formation, Dentate Gyrus and Fimbria-Fornix so clearly in a Human Brain Dissection specimen. Rarely seen video of Hippocampal Formation, Dentate Gyrus, Fimbria-Fornix, Papez Circuit with such high resolution clarity in any Human Brain dissection
